I am happy to report that all seems well at the “del”
Banque Nationale de la République d'Haiti. М, Adrien 1-0
Bonnefil advised те that- һе had called Jack Goggin Lev.
on the telephone about the Bank's pressing need for the
50 Gourdes notes of our order of August 26 1971. Не
seemed satisfied with our delivery of April 27 this year.
For the future, he told me eonfidentially that he
did not like competitive bids and the problems and heated
atmosphere they created and that he would try and feed to us
) small orders, in the region of 15 million notes each one,
over the next years. Anything over this quantity, on an
individual order, and he felt that M. André would insist on
a competitive bid, He asked for our cooperation on this,
in that we would not take advantage of our privileged
situation by raising our prices.
The Bank is beginning to consider the abolition
2 Gourdes, 10 Gourdes апа 250 Gourdes denominatión and the
DE cmm of а 25 Gourdes notes- equal to
US $5.00.
Regarding our telephone conversation, in which you said
you were forecasting 35mm.notes (15mm-1'S, 10mm-2'S and 10mm-
589 for next year. M. Léger and I félt that this was
possible, especially in view of the rapid expansion of the
j Haitian Economy. It would probably be divided into two
orders. M. Bonnefil wants me in Haiti in October or
November as he will have an idea by then of the requirements
for an order for March 1973. The second order next year
should be late in the year. Both orders around the 15mm mark.
Regarding denominations, in whieh view of the Вна Banks feelings
about the 2 Gourdes denomination, there may be less than
10mm-2'S and an order for more 50 Gourdes notes.

for a reprint of two denominations. They are: S
400,000 - 50 Gourdes

Dear Colin,
Ф Pursuant to your request for a delivery date based on
receiving an order in mid June for above subject bank notes,
following would be our planned delivery.
Ship 200,000 - 100 Gourdes notes Sept. 19, 1972.
À 400,000. 000 - 50 vs T Sept. 28, 1972
500,000
Colin, if we were to receive this order it would mark
the 3rd time within a year that we would be going to press
on the 50 Gourdes and the 2nd time in the case of the 100's.,
As you are aware, a sizeable portion of the cost of the |
production of these notes lies in the make ready and start up |
| time of the tint printing which is performed in Chícago. The |
| running time for these small quantities is relatively minor. |
e As such, would it be possible to induce the Bank to order
in larger quantities or perhaps the International Division,
based on a feel for the Bank's usage, could authorize us to
| have Chicago print additional tints.
These of course would be counted and delivered to us
under secured conditions for storage in one of our vaults. When
more notes would be required, all that would be necessary to print
would be the intaglio portion and the proper numbers.
Such a procedure should result in relatively substantial
savings both in delivery time and production dollars.

Re: Banque Nationale de la République d'Haiti
Bank Notes - 400,000 - 50 Gourdes

Thank you very much for your letter of June 2, advising
the delivery dates for the above bank notes.
/
As to your suggestions regarding the "stock píling" of
bank notes for the Banque Nationale, both Owen and myself agree that
it can save the plant time and effort, and in the long run, the
Bank money. However, we would like to take it further and suggest
to the Bank that we print the complete bank notes for say, 3 years
in advance, a total of some 80,000,000 notes.
I will be in Haiti at the beginning of next week
"June lOth to 13th," and will put this suggestion to Mr. Bonnefil
telling him that the advantages to the Bank of а) 3 years bank
notes supply at 1972 prices, and b) shorter delivery time when
they wish to re-stock their vaults supply.
I am sure you will agree that the advantages would be
manifold, it would ensure a long run for the plant and would also mean
that you could print these notes either in New York or England should
they require a stop gap, and finally from the sales point of view, it
would keep DLR out of Haiti for a few years.
In closing, I would very much apprecíate yours and
Mr. Foote's comments on this.

MEMORANDUM
UE NATIONALE DE LA REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI
Pursuant to instructions from Mr. McGehee, and in his absence,
I telephoned M, Adrien Bonnefil, Sub Director of the above Bank, on
Thursday June 8, and arranged to meet him in Haiti to advise him of
our prices for 400,000 - 50 Gourdes and 200,000 - 100 Gourdes bank
notes, an exact reprint of the Bank's previous orders.
On Saturday June 10, I met with Bonnefil socially and during
the course of our conversations we discussed the prices I had brought
with me: $26.50/M for the 50's and $33.00/M for the 100's. He told
me our prices seemed considerably higher than both he and M. Antonio
André, the President of the Bank, had been prepared for, and I
explained that the reason was not only the annual percentage increase
for labor and materials, but also when last quoting for this denomination
we had been able to absorb some of the costs of preparing low volume
denominations into those of the higher volumes.
On Monday June 12, I had arranged an appointment with André,
the President of the Bank. However, on arriving at 9:30 a.m.,
Bonnefil told me that unfortunately the meeting would be postponed
until the following day because the President had to receive a delegation
of International Bankers. Т spent most of the day with Bonnefil and at
lunch we met the Minister of Commerce, Lebert Jean-Pierre, a friend of
Mr. McGehee.
In view of the good personal relationship the Company has
always had with Bonnefil, I asked his opinion on the viability of the
Bank authorizing us to print a large quantity of his notes for three
years in advance, pointing out that this plan would have both a price
and a delivery advantage. He told me that DLR had also made similar
suggestion, asking for advance orders of five years, but at that time
the Bank thought this too long a period to "stock-pile" because of
changing political scene. He added that he would quietly make ап
| appraisal of their requirements in this period, and we would then be
able to work out some estimated prices. Ме decided that an approach |
to the President at this time would not be advantageous, rather we
should wait until we have made some calculations and then possibly
present them to André at some future meeting, depending on conditions
at the time.

MEMORANDUM s A June 15, 1972
It was not until 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday June 13, that Bonnefil
was able to arrange a meeting for me with M. André, who received me
very cordially with M. Martineau, Sub Director of the Issue Department.
As was expected, they were surprised at our prices and after some
discussions, I agreed to the lower price level of $24.10/M for the 50's
and $29.90/M for the 100's, which Mr. Barrett had given me before
leaving New York. І pointed out that the "short run" was the cause of
the high price, and that if he would increase the volume, we might be
able to reduce the price slightly. Т left M. André's office at 4:00 p.m.
having agreed to submit an additional estimate to the Bank for:
800,000 - 50 Gourdes
400,000 - 100 Gourdes.
Bonnefil also asked me to prepare, on a confidential basis,
a quotation for the following quantities which he said he would try
to "sell" to M. André:
1,000,000 - 50 Gourdes
500,000 - 100 Gourdes.
Although these amounts exceeded their initial requirements,
André and Bonnefil felt it very likely that they would need more notes
by the end of the year.

Thank you for your letter of June 13 on new ABN security
products. If you find any application for our services, please feel
free to contact us.
sun 2 1 1972
For your information, M. Bonnefil has contacted us relative
to an "urgent" order for 400,000 - 50's and 200,000 - 100's. We sent
our new representative, Mr. Colin B. West to Port-au-Prince, however
he was apparently unable to contact you for your advice as I instructed
him to do so. In any event, after presenting our prices, US$24.10 and
US$29.90 per thousand notes for the respective quantities to M. Bonnefíl
and M. André, he was told to have us calculate E quantities.
Accordingly, today I sent to Bonnefil two cables, xerox
copies attached, for increased quantities at lower prices per thousand
notes. I would think Bonnefil might be contacting us perhaps before
this letter arrives in your hands. Your commissions have of course
been included and we will advise you in due course of the outcome.
Meanwhile, will you please inquire of Bonnefil about thís perspective
order.
Also, at your convenience, would you please tell me what
did your daughter Jóel finally decide to do for summer work. We had
a desk set up for her here and because of insurance regulations we
were going to enter her on our payrolls as a secretary in my Division.
I presume she did not leave Haiti and perhaps is working with you there
in your office.
With best personal regards,
Very truly yours,

DATE 12/15/72 |
JAN
On Saturday December 2, I flew from the Dominican Republic to
Haiti. I spent Sunday and Tuesday, which was a national holiday,
with our Agent and his family at their beach home.
It became clear after my first meeting with Adrien Bonnefil on
Monday ! that the only way to make progress was to have a meeting with
M, André, the Bank President. The decision that the officials of the
Bank could not reach was whether to have a partial order of the lower
denominations only or a general order for all denominations with a
boosted up quantity for the 1 Goudes and 2 Gourdes, which are running
hort.
2 Eventually after а 2 3/4 hour wait on Friday, I met with M.André,
who had been fully briefed by Bonnefil, and decided, upon Bonnefil's
recommendation, to ask us for quotations this month or next for a
partial order of 1'9 and 2'5 and possibly 5 Gourdes.
эйе x Er:
That evening, I went round to M.Bonnefil's house, as I usually
do, to see whether he has any mail to be posted in Miami, and told
him the outcome. He showed me а сору of his recommendation to M. Andes
and was pleased his advieeg had been taken. As regards quantity, I doubt
whether more than 10 million notes will be order, more likely 6-7 million.
M.AnürÉ does not appear to be unduly concerned that dollars are
now circulating in Haiti as regularly as Gourdes; however, several of
M.Léger's friends remarked that, for nationalistic reasons, many Haitians
would prefer to have more of their own currency in circulation.
I was told that, wherever possible, Duvalier is putting pure black
people in positions of authority. Bonnefil, himself, told me that his
position in the Bank was becoming increasingly difficult because of
his color, Duvalier also has scant respect for the Arab, mulatto and
European french élite and shows socialist tendencies, although his pPesonanl
life-style is luxurious.
The information you had that M.André had been put in jail in the
fall was erroneous; in fact , he is very powerful indeed at this time.
We are in a strong competitive position in Haiti, Georges Léger,
OUR Agent, is largely responsible for this. The Dela Rue agent, Brandt,
has, I understand, become very senile and has sold out his business to
his sons. There was some туе AES" in the family. I could not
find Y out whether the De 1a Ru аф remained with the father
or moved to the sons. ж.

Dear Robert:
On your forthcoming visit to the Dominican
Republic, I would also apprecíate your visiting the
above as a matter of courtesy. Should the Bank ex-
pect to place an order this year for notes, the sooner
it does so, the better delivery we can arrange. For
your confídential information, I am forecasting the
Bank would place an order of approximately 30 million
bank notes in three denominations for 1973.

AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY
INTERNATIONAL DIVISION
Trip Report
Banque Nationale de la République d'Haiti
March 22 - 27, 1973
Purpose: To present two framed collections of specimen bank notes, one
to the National Museum, the other to the Banque Nationale. The specimens
displayed dated from our first order in 1875 to date.
The two frames arrived via American Airlines very late, (sent
Marchl7 - arrived March 22) with no shipping papers. Unfortunately, the
glass covering the one for the Banque had been broken in transit, thus
leaving the specimen notes exposed, but not damaged. The frame for the
National Museum arrived in perfect condition.
The Banque: Оп Friday, Adrien Bonnefil, Vice President and Manager of
the Banque, and I had a very extensive discussion at his home regarding
the Banque, its present political situation, its future bank note require-
ments, the role of commercial banking in Haiti now that the First National
City and Bank of Nova Scotia had been permitted to establish branch offices
in the country, and the very volatile economic conditions which are favor-
ably developing in Haiti. M. Bonnefil told me that soon the Banque would
need new supplies of bank notes and that he could "arrange" the orders
under either of the following two options:
1. Place large orders for say approximately 50,000,000 notes, spread over
five denominations, in which case he said the Banque would be forced |
under law to call for an International Tender, approved and legalized
by the Banque's Board of Directors, or x
2, Continue to ask us "privately" for quotations on a succession of \
smaller orders, to be placed without going through the formality
of public bidding. He said he personally preferred this option, |
even though, as I pointed out, the long-run cost to the Banque
would be higher due to the small size of the orders.
In substance, we agreed to follow Option 2, and I told him
our Company would do its best to render good service at the highest speed
possible.
(M. Bonnefil is a very close friend of ours and continually
recalled the time when my wife and I received his son at our home and
found him a summer messenger job at ABNCo.)
Over the weekend, I saw several very important people at
our Agent's beach home who have nothing to do with our direct business,
yet all of whom gave me a very good "feel" as to the new business cli-
mate which is rapidly developing in the country.

Our Presentation: On Monday evening, M. Léger and his wife gave a very
elegant cocktail-buffet at their beautiful home in Petionville where I
officially presented our two framed collection of bank notes. The party
was formal dress, and the following persons attended:
M. and Mme. Gerard Jolivois - Official Historian for the Republic of Haiti,
Office of Tourism and Information
M. and Mme. René Adrien - Director, National Banque of Haiti
M. and Mme. Adrien Bonnefil - Sub-General Manager and Director, National
Banque of Haiti
M. and Mme. Gerard Joseph - Director, National Banque of Haiti
M. and Mme. Max Emtaine - Minister of Labor
M. and Mme. Paul Raymon - Minister of Foreign Affairs
M. and Mme. Aubelin Jolicoeur - Public Relations Officer, National Office
of Public Relations
M. and Mme. Noe Fourclad - Director of National Banque of Haiti.
M. Antonio André, President of the Banque, had also
accepted M. Léger's invitation; however, he was unable to attend, due
to the illness of his wife.
In any event, the following morning our reception
and presentation received front page attention in the National Govern-
ment newspaper and several other private papers which most certainly
gave our саад the puliteity and prominence it dese
—
General: Because my staff and I are continually looking for possible
opportunities for our Company on our overseas visits, I had very ex-
tensive discussions with our Agent on the question of land costs, build-
ing sites, labor rates, customs duties and corporate taxes in Haiti.
(M. Léger represents 23 U.S. coporations operating in Haiti and is quite
qualified to render an expert opinion on the aforegoing.)
I discussed with him the possibility of our establishing and
operating a small bank note finishing plant in or very near the port
city of Port-au-Prince. М. Léger gave me the following information (in
U.S. dollars): =
1. Construction costs - approximately US$1.00/sq. ft.
2. Labor rates for examination, cutting, banding, packing per day,
US$4.00 per person, including all fringe benefits, Social Security,
and city taxes.
3. Five years free from importation duties of all machinery necessary
for plant operations.

Теп years free from corporation income taxes.
Raw materials, in our case, sheets of bank notes, can be imported,
processed, and re-exported without customs inspection or delay.
The National Banque of Haiti owns and operates an industrial park
very near the International Airport and International Port. It
is a duty free zone for "processing operations".
24 hour/day uniform guard service is provided by the Haitian Army
free of charge. No one is allowed into this area without specific
arrangements beforehand.

Dear Mr. Jagger:
I am eager to let you know that the collection of bank notes
printed by American Bank Note for Haiti has been delivered to us
through the attention of Me. George N. Leger, Fils, attorney and
of M. André Théard, Director General of the Tourist Office, who
received it from Mr. Owen L. McGehee, Vice President International
Division of the American Bank Note Co.
This beautiful collection, which goes back to 1875, is of much
interest to our visitors and, especially,to the students of our
schools. We believe it is you who deserve all the glory, since the
interest which you have shown for the National Museum of Haiti and
your efforts in our behalf helped us to obtain the collection.
In my name, as well as in that of the country which patrimony
has been enriched, I present to you, M. Jagger, our sincere grati-
tude and request that you please accept the assurance of my highest
consideration.

Pursuant to my promise during my last visit
with you in Port-au-Prince, enclosed herewith is a chronology
of the bank note orders printed by us for Haiti from 1875 to
date. Т hope the data presented will be of interest to you
and that it will be in accordance with the Bank's own records.
of these transactions. Obviously, orders placed with other
companies are not included.
As I mentioned to you during our evening to-
gether at your home, when you feel the Bank is in need of more
notes, please feel free to telephone me directly. Also please
keep in mind that we would need considerable prior notice
before we can effect the delívery of your order due to the
fact that our plants are very heavily committed at this time.
From time to time I shall send Mr. Jagger to

Dear M. Bonnefil:
/ Thank you very much for your interesting letter
of May 18 which I greatly appreciated.
I am very sorry you and Mme. Bonnefil missed my
departure from Haiti as it would have been nice to see you at
the airport. Thank you for taking the time from your busy day
to drive down there.
As I mentioned to you privately, whenever you
and M. André are ready to reorder more notes, please feel free
to contact me directly or M. Léger. We will always do our very
best to serve the Banque's needs.
Very truly yours,
Vice President

WN VASE
M. Léger called from Port-au-Prince today advising that, fol-
lowing our call earlier in the week, he had visited the Bank and
spoken with Antonio André, President, Gerard Martineau, Controluer,
and Adrian Bonnefil, Sous Directeur.
Subject: Banque Nationale d'Haiti - Bank Notes
Date: 11/9/73
M. André had ordered an immediate study of the Bank's bank
note requirements and said that there would then be an invitation
to public bid.
The order, according to Bonnefil, would be substantial and
for the denominations of 1 Gourde, 2 Gourdes and 5 Gourdes. They
are thinking of eliminating the 10 Gourdes denomination.
M. Léger said that in another two or three weeks, when some
conclusions had been reached, it might be worth sending a represen-
tative to Haiti.

From; L. 0. McGehee FEB 2: 1974
Date: February 20, 1974 —Hh N NTF O —.h.T
Banque Nationale de la République d'Haiti
We have received à request for prices and delivery from the above bank
for the following quantities of notes:
15 million 1 Gourde notes - Previous order 2-2390-484
n "
5 million 2 Gourde notes - 2-0838-484
5 million 5 Gourde notes - P " 2-2391-484
400,000 50 Gourde notes - ^ " 2-5046-484
200,000 100 Gourde notes - m " 2-5047-484
The Bank has requested the following delivery preference:
1's - October 1974
5's - October 1974
2's - Noveuber/December 1974
50's - March 1975
100's - March 1975
While we would, for pricing reasons, prefer that this order be produced
in England, we would appreciate your acting as “print broker" in order to deter-
mine which location, either ABN or BW, could provide deliveries based on the
Bank's request as outlined above. This order has traditionally been printed
utilizing Crane's 258 paper, with planchettes, 5000 МОР, 2-plate underlying tínts
prepared in Chicago with Intaglio and finishing done by ABN-Bronx. We have never
printed this order in BW. “he order under conteuplatíon would be a continuation
of our original orders placed in 1971. І.е., numbers to follow, signatures to
be the same, etc.
Would you please endeavor at your earliest convenience to advise us as
to where we could prepare this order meeting the above delivery requirements as
stated. For pricing reasons, we would appreciate receiving a delivery promíse
based on ABN production and a delivery promise based on BW production. Once
these production schedules are in hard, we will then endeavor сә determine sel-
ling prices.

We should appreciate it if you would let us have your best
delivery promise, urgently, based on production at the Bronx Plant.
The price to be given the Bank vill be higher than B.W.'s

which will be negotiated during the coming week. А good delivery
will undoubtedly temper their first reaction to the higher price.

Gentlemen: 4 d E
With regard to your letter of February 12, 1974, which referred
to your Telex of February 13, 1974, we are pleased to offer herein our
proposals for supplying 25,600,000 bank notes, divided among five denom-
inations and being reprints of notes previously produced by this Company
for the Banque Nationale.
In view of the Banque's urgent needs, but faced with an unprece-
dented world-wide demand for bank notes, our proposal presents two options
regarding price and delivery, as will be noted. As previously, we can
guarantee the quality of the notes, regardless of the location of production.

Dear Mr, Peck :
This is to confirm our telephone conversation of today.
I spoke tp Mr. A. André short time ago, and he verbally
confirmed the order, asking that printing should start
immediately.
Prices are accepted as quoted.
The formal printing confirmation will follow up within
the next 48 hours, pending detailled inventory in the
Bank vaults to determine whether shipment should be by
air freight instead of ocean freight.
Such instructions will be included in the confirmation
order,
Very truly yours,

Dear Robert:
The BNRH has ordered 5 million bank notes of the 5 Gourde denomination
at $17.80 per thousand for a total cost of $89,000.00 US currency. Also, en-
closed for your information is a copy of ABN and Bradbury;Wilkinson proposals
in response to the Banque's request for quotations on 25.6 million notes in
5 denominations. You will note a variation in the global and the overall value
per thousand from the figures given you earlier. This is a result of a last-
minute change in the value per thousand of the 100 Gourde note. That change was
an increase of $5 per thousand, giving the indicated $46.45 per thousand, or a
total increase of $1,000.00. The change in BW is 4ust the correction of an
inadvertant reversal. It was all re-typed and cleared up before I departed
Sunday.
The 5 by 5 project has ready in New York dates of :
1) 2 uillion the week of May 27 and
2) 3 million the week of June 3.
Truck and steamer C.I.F. Port-au-Prince. The Banque is considering the possi-
bility of a) air shipment, b) raising the order by another 5 million, or
c) raising the 5 Gourde figure in the "Gran" order to 10 million, an order on
which, incidéntly, M. Bonnefil reports no competitor's quotation to date.
I hope that the operation was thoroughly successful and that you will be
able to move things along in Haiti shortly. Messrs. Bonnefil and Leger join us
in wishes for a rapid recovery. Owen has poison ivy of the eye, so I see John
Field this evening at JFK re Saigon where he visited last week. We are expected
there about March 25.
All best,

March 25, 1974 Haiti
Dear George:
Confirming our telephone call of Friday, March 22, you re-
ported no movement on the pending order for 25.6 million notes in
5 Gourde denominations because of the continued illness of M. Antonio
André. While Robert Jagger is under doctor's orders not to travel
until after Apríl 1, you may wish to be in touch with him, should
the situation change. His number in San José, Costa Rica is 25-37-10.
The Story of American Bank Note Company and the last French
calendar are en route under separate cover. Т am sorry our supply
has been exhausted. Thank you for all your effective assistance
on the order for 5 million 5 Gourde notes. It is well that I was
in the office on March 13 and 14. John Field of Bradbury, Wilkin-
son came through from Saigon.
I look forward to a return to Haiti. Best regards.

Meeting to Analyze Actual vs. Estimated Costs
on Haitian Bank Notes
meeting at the Bronx, January 24th, on the above subject:
1.
2.
In general, the purpose of the meeting was to review the
causes which resulted ín an actual contribution margin
of about 1357 instead of an estimated contribution margin
of about 357 - for the recent order of Haitian bank notes.
The basic reasons for the bad contribution margin were:
а. The cost of an inordinate number of make-ups which
were created to a large extent by the fact that a
double letter prefix was inserted before the number
on the bank notes, which resulted in a high rate of
rejection due to improper fit of the number in rela-
tion to steel on the face of the bank note. It was
felt that had examples of the rejected work been
shown to top manufacturing management, a relaxing of
the stringent quality control would have been granted,
thus greatly reducing the number of make-ups required.
It should be noted that this double letter prefix re-
quirement was not known to the Manufacturing or Esti-
mating Departments at the time the original estimates
were being made.
b. The cost of banding was greatly in excess of estimate
and Joe Steele felt this was largely his error since
he had figured on one operation for this procedure,
rather than two as were actually used. It does appear
that two different operations are required for the
proper banding.
c.
d.
rh
.
The cost of wrapping was exceedingly high and actual
labor production was not up to standard.
All in all, the cost of direct labor was up approxi-
mately $14,000 or 507 over estimate. 2
Variable overhead was up approximately $33,000 of
which two-thirds was attributable to the increased
direct labor used, and the other third (approximately
$11,000) was due to the fact we were not using up-to-
date information on the percentage relationship in the
various departments between direct labor and variable
overhead. It appeared that much of the increase in not
using up-to-date standards occurred in the area of exam-
ination and finishing. In both cases, this increase was
due to a higher cost of indirect labor.
After steel printing, examination of work produced a
spoilage rate of approximately 97 - in other words,
out of the 338,000 sheets printed, approximately 30,000
were considered bad. About 167 of these 30,000 (4800
sheets) were due to bad tint work prepared at Chicago,
and another 20% of the 30,000 (6000 sheets) were rejected
due to bad registration between steel and litho. At this
point, it is impossible to tell whether this misregistra-
tion was due to bad steel or bad litho.
3. In order to prevent recurrence of this type of variance between
actual and estimated costs, it was agreed that we would take the
following steps:
a.
We will re-examine the possibility of automating the
banding operation: going to shrink-wrap instead of
Kraft paper wrapping, and exploring again methods of
automating packing.
At the current time our procedure is to shrink-wrap
American Express travelers cheques, First National City
travelers checks (on the new order) and we will endeavor
to obtain permission to shrink-wrap Bank of America's
travelers cheques. :
Our proposal to Ecuador offers shrink-wrap as an alter-
nate to Kraft paper wrapping. In the future, on all
bank note sales, our International Sales Department
should endeavor to force the use of shrink-wrap and
completely bypass Kraft paper wrapping which is an ex-
ceedingly slow and costly operatíon.
d.
f.
в.
A review of the estimated costs оп Ecuador which had been furnished by Joe
Steele to the International Sales Department was held.
all of these estimates were up-to-date and proper and thus if we succeed in
obtaining this order, our actual realized contribution margin should be
I will check with Gus Carder to see what type of
examination is performed on the tint printing and
check the cost of increasíng this examination. Tt
may be that the additional cost of increasing ex-
amination will more than offset the cost of rejec-
tion of work after steel printing.
Manufacturing will require that when spoilage in
any department exceeds a certain percentage which
will be set by Management, then each Department
Head must immediately report to top Management for
appropriate action.
In the future, on large jobs which have been esti-
mated, each Department Head will be given informa-
tion as to the productivity expected in his own
department on this particular job. The Department
Head will notify Manufacturing Management if any
sizeable variation from the standard occurs.
Herb Bodensiek will try to pínpoint the exact causes
of the greatly increased cost of variable overhead
(mostly indirect labor) in those departments where
this increase has occurred.
right іп line with our anticipated contribution margin.
I think in a month to six weeks from now, we should hold a further meeting
to see where we stand on the corrective actions which have been suggested.

Re: Memo of 2/3/75 on Haitian Bank Notes
Т refer to the above memorandum which was, in effect, Minutes of our
meeting held at the Bronx on January 24th to analyze the difference
between actual and estimated costs on Haitian Bank Notes.
It was concluded at that meeting that certain corrective action would
be taken on large jobs going through the Plant ín the future and I am
writing at this point to mske sure we аге putting into force those
agreed-upon procedures. The Minutes specifically mentioned the proposal
on Ecuador which we at that time were submitting. As you know, we now
have the order and we should most certainly do everything we can to
maximize our actual contribution margin. It was most discouraging, in
this connection, to learn from Owen that we have already under-estimated
our paper costs by some $18,000. It is my understanding that this under-
estimate came about because we had not taken into consideration the
necessary overlay for the printing of the litho tints in Chicago.

Your Memos 2/3/75 and 4/9/75
Haitian Bank Notes
You are quite correct in your 4/9 memo in that corrective
action was to be taken by manufacturing in an attempt to avoid
repetition of the problems and the resulting low contribution
margin from the recent Haitian Bank Note order (1 Gourde).
Addressing ourselves to the pertinent items in your memo
of 2/3/75, the following action has, or is being taken:
Le]
€
Item Зе - Attached is a memo by Charlie dated 2/30/75
relative to a possible future high waste problem. In effect,
it is now the responsibility of the foremen or Supt. "to ring
a bell" when waste becomes excessively high. Ап appraisal will
then be made as to the economics of processing part waste sheets
vs a partial reprinting of the job in question.
Item 3f - Attached is a set of the new cost estimate sheets
which, as an example, outline the figures used by Joe Steele in
working up the production costs for the Honduras 10 Lempiras notes.
Similar cost estimate sheets will be generated for every large job,
or new job, to be produced in the Bronx.
The figures to be put on these sheets will represent those
estimated by the various departments and supplied to Joe in working
up the cost figures. Some time before starting on a given job,
these figures will be sent to the respective departments as a
record of their estimation of the required times and rates.
As soon as possible after starting the job, the actual rates
and/or times will be compared against estimated. This will be
done at the lowest possible level of supervision and by those
responsible for establishing the estimated figures. This com-
parison should and will be maintained throughout the entire
job. Any significant variances will be immediately reported
in order to permit possible corrective action.
2...
— m mrt meme me, p; ayl... 6700
72 5
C. E. T. has had a meeting with the Genl. Superintendents
summarizing these procedures as follows:
1) Cost sheets are to be generated by Joe using information
2) The resulting sheets are to be sent back to the respective
supplied by the various departments. (This information
should come from the lowest possible level of responsible
supervision.) There should and will be a tést of reason-.
ableness of these figures.
-
Genl. Supts. who will see that copies or figures are then
supplied to their various department superintendents and/or
foremen, to be used by them for comparison against actuals.
3) Significant variances will be immediately reported upward
for possible corrective action.
4) The generated cost sheets will also be used by the various
departments to compare the operations used for the estimates
against those in the order sheets. If the order contains
"complications" which were not considered in the estimate,
this fact will be made known immediately.
The risk here, Bill, with this procedure is that attempts will be
made with future estimates to overstate the rates or costs in order to
produce future positive variances. However, with our manufacturing
people, I am sure this has a low order probability. I am, likewise,
certain that when the problems arise there will be no hesitancy to
"ring the bell" since this entire procedure is aimed primarily at
improving our estimates and catching problems as early as possible,
as opposed to placing blame.

year to have notes in time for the coffee harvest of 1976.M.André is always
difficult to see,as he does not delegate responsibility to subordinates and
always receives foreign delegaticns;the best way is to sit in his outer
office for hours if need be until he feels guilty about you; HE KNOWS you
are there because he has & closed circuit TV screen by his desk so that
he can see whb is waiting for him.The last time I saw him I waited 24 hours
and when I went in he was very concerned about my long wait and asked me
wheteher I had enjoyed the coffee!

Port-au-Prince, Haiti
Dear M. Bonnefil:
Some time has elapsed since we last communicated, which,
I suppose, is a sad consequence of the fast pace of life
nowadays. I trust this finds you and your family in good
health.
In reviewing our records at American Bank Note we notice that
the last bank note order placed by Banque Nationale was in
May, 1974. In икон И e of your needs, it appears that the
Bank would be served best by receiving a delivery of lower
denomination bank notes in September or October of 1976.
In the recent past Haitian currency has been one of the few
bank note orders to be produced in our New York plant. At
present, however, our bank note capacity is rapidly being
filled. For example, on a recent reprint order, our earliest
delivery promise was eight months from date of contract. This
interval is likely to lengthen as plant schedules become more
heavily committed. We respectfully suggest, therefore, that
the Bank consider seriously placing an order before the first
of the year, since we would very much regret being unable to meet
the requirements of the Bank, which we have had the honor to
serve for over 100 years.
At your convenience, perhaps you will advise us as to the
quantities you estimate necessary for next year's use, so
that we may prepare an offer for your consideration.
With best personal egards
Very truly yours,
AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY

Dear Mr. McGehee :
Last week end, a change took place in the Board of Directors
of Banque Nationale de 1а République.
Mr. Antonio André was not reelected Chairman of the Board, but
instead was appointed Minister of Commerce and Industry; the
former Minister of Commerce and Industry, Mr. François Muret
who had previously been an Assistant-Manager and Head о e
Commercial Department of the Banque, was elected Chairman of
the Board and President of the Banque, replacing Mr. André,
Mr. Frank Bouchereau, formally Assistant-Manager, has been
appointed to replace Mr. René Adrien who was not reappointed;
Mr. Adrien was Head of the Commercial Section of Banque Natio-
nale.
A very welcomed promotion is that given to our good friend
Mr. Adrien Bonnefil who was elected Vice Chairman of the Board
and Director, becoming therefor thesecond in line in the Admi-
nistration of Banque Nationale.
I though that these information might be of interest to you, and
remain,
Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. McGehee: N
W
I have had а very pleasant talk with Mr, Bonnef 11 during the
course of a meeting on some other subjects, I took the opportunity
of recalling to his attention your Oc tober letter and underlining
the necessity to project their order ас least nine to twelve months
before actual delivery.
Mr. Bonnefil stated that for the current crop, the Bank would be all
set up with different types of bank notes but would definitely be short
for the next year, starting late October mid-November... ———
— — — асылына ͤ—
He is going to ask a complete inventory and will review the situation
with Mr. Murat some time in the middle of November. Не will be away
from his office from approximately November 8th to November 20th,
going, I believe to Uruguay for some kind of conference.
I believe that a visit by a representative of American Bank Note would
be a good move, if it can be arranged for the end of November or early
December,
Мс. Bonnefil, of course, could not make any commitments of any nature
with respect to a possible order.
Please keep me informed of your decision in this matter,
With very best regards, I remain
Yours sincerely,

MEMORANDUM TO THE FILES
Banque Nationale de 1а
République d'Haiti
At Mr. McGehee's request, at 1:00 p.m. I spoke to
our agent, M. Léger, by telephone to give the pricing and delivery
information we have telexed today to the Bank, pursuant to their
telexed request for quotation dated December 8.
(
Jn addition to the C.I.F. prices given to the Bank
(see telex), I gave M. Léger minimum prices for each denomination,
below which we cannot go, but which he can use as a guide in
negotiating with M. Bonnefil, as follows:
Sub-total
1] Gourde notes 10 million US$21.52/M US$215,248
5 Gourdes notes 4 million US$28.92/M 115,679
50 Gourdes notes 400,000 US$57.72/M 23,086
TOTAL US$354,015 C OTR.
Port-au-Prince
The price quoted to the Bank for the total order
is US$368,715, which means we are prepared to lower our price
by $14, 702, or 4 percent.
(The figure $368,715 will yield a contribution margin of 47%
after commission, which is included, and the $354,013 figure
will yield a CM of 45%.)
M. Léger was pleased with our rapid deliveries and
indicated that his impression from previous conversations with
M. Bonnefil was that the Bank expected to pay a premium for
such service.
M. Léger also said that the Bank will call for bids
for a larger order of different denominations before the end of
the year. He said that the Bank will eliminate the 2 Gourdes
note and his guess is that the 20 Gourdes will also be eliminated
and replaced by a 25 Gourdes note.
As a possible future defense, I told M. Léger that
while we hoped that for larger quantities of notes our prices
would be lower than this bid, nevertheless, the reduction would
not be substantial, as we did not calculate today's numbers on
an overtime basis, although it might seem so because of the quick
delivery and high prices. Т mentioned to him that our industry
is an expensive one in that the input we must utilize is costly,
i.e., paper and highly skilled labor.
M. Léger will call us tomorrow after speaking with
M. Bonnefil. Кайли

Dear Mr. Troy:
REF: Bank Note for Haiti
This is to confirm verbal quotations given yesterdey to Mr. Steele for
two grades of paper to cover the following inquiry:
604,800 sheets, Sub. 23.57, 25-1/8 x 25-5/8 - 8iM: 18,908 lbs.
311,112 sheets, Sub. 23.57, 26-7/16 x 26-1/16 - 87M: 27,066 lbs.
22,400 sheets, Sub. 23.57, 1h- x 20 - 37M: 829 1bs.
76,883 los. total to be delivered first quarter of 1916 for April/
May printing. А
. . | 1i
For Standard #29 Bank Note, our grade 06-21, $258, the price would be $1.08 - 50
per pound. Mie 15 |44
For our grade 06-20, #206-X Bank Note, the price would be $1.135. rash
Of note is the fact that there are no fluorescence level specifications
for the 258 grade, whereas the 206 is dead for fluorescence, contains по
cV وح
surface sizing and is felt to be & better sheet for Bank Note applications.
This quotation is valid for orders received on or before Monday, the 15th
of December, 1915, and the usual terms of FOB Dalton, 2% 30 days, Net 31,
would apply.
With best regards.
Sincerely,
